Wide receiver Julian Fleming, in position for a potential starting role this fall, stood out to Ryan Day in Ohio State's recent scrimmage.
Shoulder issues hampered him in previous seasons. He underwent a procedure on his left shoulder in the offseason following his freshman season.
“Sometimes you've got to roll with the punches,” Fleming said. “I take it as just another little bump along the way. Obviously, I've been plagued with little bumps, bruises, injuries.” The pace of the Buckeyes’ spread offense was much faster. He wasn’t used to play calls being signaled from the sideline instead of a huddle.“My route running wasn’t up to par,” he said. “It wasn’t that crisp. Now I feel like a whole different player in that aspect of football.”Fleming’s motivation was seen during offseason strength and conditioning workouts, and he was among seven players recognized as an “Iron Buckeye” by the staff for their dedication.
